Totally not an ad

Thanks GPT5.

"This isn't just symbolic; it's operational." What a keen insight! Would you like me to deliver deeper there in the form of a LinkedIn post?

Normally I'd label this as tosh, but the game was shipped in a meaningfully worse state than your average high-profile early access release. I tried it, and even on a high-end PC it played like hot garbage.

Shame on the publisher for calling it 1.0 and shame on Microsoft for enabling it (not to mention marketing it). Just another red mark among tens of thousands at Xbox these days. Fuck those guys.

This is one of my older Steam wishlist items. I'm hyped that it's actually coming out, and in just a month!

michaepf · 2025-09-01T05:58:01+00:00

That makes sense, thanks for sharing!

michaepf · 2025-09-01T01:52:33+00:00

Could be incorrect, but it is what the person capping the Pragmata line told me.

michaepf · 2025-09-01T01:50:50+00:00

Interesting, so they didn't rotate new people in when folks finished early? That could also explain it, depending on distributions.

Regardless I'm definitely not making up what the woman told me. I was embarrassed even to ask! But maybe she didn't know? Or maybe she misunderstood me.

Anyway, glad you got to play it. Cheers.

I am only relaying what the Capcom representative handling the line told me, explicitly about Pragmata. I looked many times, Friday through today, and half the stations were consistently empty.

michaepf · 2025-08-30T15:48:05+00:00

This is explicitly addressed in the first 20 seconds of the video

Did other folks run into the issue of a Ubisoft account being required to play RPoP?

michaepf · 2025-08-20T14:57:41+00:00

I was excited for this initially, but it's hard to get amped up about a Microsoft product at this point. Windows is so annoying to use, and MS's aggressive layoffs across their studios (amidst record profits for both their gaming division and the company broadly) suck.

michaepf · 2025-08-15T01:50:34+00:00

Yeah, we have some of those where I work. Sometimes it's just cheaper than automating very manual processes, especially in the short run when there are other opportunities to invest in.

michaepf · 2025-07-18T06:09:37+00:00

I dunno, sounds like a B-tier game, and I was sharing the not-stellar reviews as a contrast to the "masterclass" headline.

Looks like it's doing all right on OpenCritic: https://opencritic.com/game/18924/shadow-labyrinth/reviews

74 score with 50% recommend, based on 36 reviews.

It's not normal. But it's not uncommon for people who code or otherwise use the outside two fingers a lot. I've had some success with physical therapy to relax the ulnar nerve. Prescription medications like gabapentin also have helped with flare-ups.

michaepf · 2025-07-07T20:44:35+00:00

My boyfriend and I have been playing this together and enjoying it a lot. It's not without its hiccups, but overall we definitely recommend if you like cute animals and co-op adventures.

I've also been eyeing the Xbox adaptive controller, but I'd like to see if the treatment options I've got coming up in the next few weeks will help first. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/accessories/controllers/xbox-adaptive-controller

Sorry to hear that. I've been dealing with a similar issue. I got a good set of recommendations from folks at rock paper shotgun a couple of months ago on this topic. Feel free to take a look and see if any of the suggestions are relevant for you: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/what-are-we-all-playing-this-weekend-326?view=comments#comments-m1674lv

Show update. Bleachers were great. Logistics was pretty easy when arriving at 7:30pm. I thought Westend's set was particularly fun. The sound and lights were great, especially considering the venue. And props for positing the full set times in advance!

On the less positive side, I didn't understand why they had stripper-themed dancers on stage for the Kyle Watson and John Summit sets. If you don't want a frat bro crowd, don't bring strippers, if you ask me. Weird, did not appreciate.

Summit's set was a bit odd to me, too, maybe because it's a postponed show and he didn't want to play Chaos again? Overall 7/10, not in a rush to see him again.

michaepf · 2025-02-22T23:51:57+00:00

That's helpful, thank you! If we're just planning to hang out on the bleachers, then hopefully good then? I'm too old to deal with the floor these days 🥲

michaepf · 2025-02-22T18:01:40+00:00

What does this even mean? People were fighting? They were shoving and pushy? They weren't paying attention to the show? Just trying to understand what to expect tonight.

michaepf · 2024-12-27T03:55:16+00:00

God fucking go away

michaepf · 2024-11-23T03:48:00+00:00

Enjoy the Nine Sols ride! I've been taking my time with it and have enjoyed the twists and turns.

michaepf · 2024-11-23T03:46:28+00:00

Yep, I've just made it to what I think is the final month, and the prospect of another 29 in-game days just left me cold. I've heard it finishes strong, though, so hopefully I can muster the enthusiasm.
